How on earth do I send photos via the new "Photos" application???

Really Bali? You think that Apple is wise to roll-out software that disregards the number 1 email application used globally.

Many people don't have the choice of which application to use, as only certain ones are supported by their employers or organizations - but you seem to think that it's ok if Apple disregards that since it's old. It might be nice for Apple, but it's not nice for their users.

Microsoft entrenched itself in the business world a long time ago offering package deals and integrating their products in such a way as to make them almost indispensable. But at $399.00 for the standard office Suite it's hardly cheap compared to Apple Mail which is free. Apple have done their utmost to make their applications compatible with Windows while Microsofts' only concession was to produce Microsoft Office for OSX in an obvious attempt to get an even larger slice of the market pie. Microsoft Office for OSX 2016 was a disaster and it took months for Microsoft to release patches and updates to address the issues Mac users were experiencing. If you are experiencing such compatibility issues why are you not running a Windows environment via Boot Camp or Parallels. If it's because you like the other features/applications of a Mac then you need to keep your Microsoft software up to date too. As to Apple "disregarding" older Microsoft products they have done exactly the same with many of their own products, in some cases abandoning them entirely, e.g Aperture, iPhoto and iWorks to mention a few but this is the price of progress. Many more Mac users than Windows programs users have complained about the difficulties of the transition to El Capitan. Many third party apps have had to be updated/upgraded at the Mac users cost, AirMail 2 (which I use incidentally) and may be more suitable for your cross platform needs, Carbon Copy Cloner, Clean My Mac 3, deeper, Solitaire Till Dawn, Better Snap Tool, Find any File etc, etc the list goes on and on and Outlook is just another it just costs a lot more. I used to use Microsoft Entourage once upon a time but that was curtailed by Microsoft. The plain truth of the matter is technology continues to advance and we must advance with it or be left behind. Whether it is motivated by planned obsolescence, fashion, profit or a genuine attempt to improve the quality of our lives is a moot point.

Apple did nothing to you or anybody else. They released an OS update. If your preferred mail client does not work on the new OS, or the version that you prefer to use doesn't work, then the correct thing to do is not update.

Thanks for the oh-so-helpful and incredibly COMPASSIONATE advice. Love you too❤️

Wasn't addressed to you, but it still holds. You want compassion, go find a real problem.

hi

The best you can do is first export the photo's as JPG to a folder and then attach it as a photo or a file to the e-mail.

Hope this helps you.

Or use Apple Mail which is fully supported and supports your exchange mail account

Thanks, but that is not an option for me. I use HTML mail and not the "Rich Text" which Apple Mail uses. I do not know why Apple has chosen to not offer HTML email when it seems as if everyone else on the planet is. I love Apple--I truly do. But it's things like this which really drive me nuts. To think that Apple made the decision to STOP people from emailing directly from Photos if you use Outlook is just ridiculous in my opinion. It was not that way before, with most versions of iPhoto. I used Outlook and I could email from within iPhoto all the time, no problem. I can only hope that they will bring it back, because something like this will not force me to switch to "Mail'. Ugh......I have a love/hate relationship with Apple that is now in its 32nd year.

Then until MS updates OutLook to work with El Captain and Photos you can use the media browser if your Outlook it up to date or export to a desktop folder and use from there - the required changes to Outlook are MS's responsibility not Apple's - as Software moves forward updates have to be made and only MS can make the required update to Outlook - they finally did update so the media browser can be used I understand

You can still send pictures direct from from Photos by Right clicking on the image and selecting Share. This will take you to the sharing options and if the option you want is not available select "more." Resizing options become available if Mail is the way you choose to share.

Right - but they chose not to as they only want to Use MS Outlook which will not work with OS X 11.10 and up until MS updates it if they ever do - mail would work just fine but the user does not want to do that

LN

pretty much

except you can certainly use MS Outlook for all of your email except sending photos and use mail for photos only

and yes the options are as I outlined them

Then until MS updates OutLook to work with El Captain and Photos

[1] you can use the media browser if your Outlook it up to date

[2] or export to a desktop folder and use from there

[3] or use Mail at least for photos

- the required changes to Outlook are MS's responsibility not Apple's - as Software moves forward updates have to be made and only MS can make the required update to Outlook - they finally did update so the media browser can be used I understand
